I think cutting down on the bad turnovers is the most important at this point. No team is going to have 1 or 2 two turnovers a game but to many ours have been self inflicted via dropped passes, bad passes, trying to feed someone who is surrounded, going for the highlight goal or pass for no reason etc, or falling victim to totally avoidable situations. Best example is SU turning the ball over three straight possessions against Hobart last week twice by the same defender coming out of the box stripping it from behind, you just can't have that. I think SU has done a good job of trying to push transition whenever its been there which is key for this team because they can struggle at times to score in the 6 on 6 set.

Also this team needs to continue to get better on GB's. I can't tell you how many times I have seen an SU player this year fail to get a gb because they over ran it or couldn't  scoop it cleanly or just plain missed it. We were a bit better here last week but again we need that to carry over in multiple games. The other concerning aspect is that this team the last few years this one included has the tendency to play down or up to the level of competition.  Held ND to 10 goals and then gave up 11 to Hobart. Now I think some of that was the D letting up a bit after a rough stretch but playing up and down like that is very dangerous as your not always going to come out on the winning end of these one goal games.
